After 8 years at Snap, head of product Jacob Andreou is heading to Silicon Valley VC Greylock. Their portfolio companies include Airbnb, Workday, Coinbase, and Discord. In a tweet, Andreou sais “To the team and Evan, thank you for giving me the honor of a lifetime. Getting to help build such an impactful product and company has changed my life.” Andreou was responsible for Snapchat’s monetization products, growth operations and data science. That was a long run for a tech company! Earlier this year, Coatue hired a Snap’s former SVP of content and partnerships, Ben Schwerin, as a new GP. He also was at the tech company since 2015.
